Swing for Jordan

Saturday, July 18

Introducing the Foundation

The Swing For Jordan Foundation was created to honor the life of beloved son, brother, and friend, Jordan Michael Benjamin, who passed away on December 7, 2023 from cancer. Larger than life, Jordan was adventerous, loving, and driven, whether snowboarding, playing softball, or lining up a putt, and the foundation carries his spirit forward with energy, courage, and joy. Please note all proceeds from this event will go to the life saving work of the Colorado Cancer Foundation, a 501 (c)(3) charitable nonprofit organization operating since 1979.
